After a long period of inactivity, (1 month of no modeling), I came back and reworked on my Tamiya 105 Sherman.

I've started this kit a month ago and only now I worked on it.



Primed the thing first with Surfacer 1000 then I used Tamiya enamels for air brushing The paint is still wet and still uneven cause it suddenly rain and I had to rush the model inside. Will have to repaint this kit again next week. Photo's a bit too green but it's only the photo. I used Tamiya OD straight from the bottle.





I've tried making this kit OOB but for something different, I tried texturizing the hull sides and the turret. It's not very visible in the photos though

Looks promising to me. Are you going to give it a winter white wash?

Probably. I'm not sure on what to do here. I wanted to do a rain dio but I think it didn't rain (water) during the Ardennes offensive right?

It was snowy during the Ardennes offensive....Dec. 16, 1944. For an Ardennes dio, your best bet would be snow...

Cheers
